do you think prev is older or younger than you?
has anyone written this bc I would absolutely write this
Little AU where it's Sae-byeok that runs into Gi-hun in Seoul in S1E2, instead of Il-nam, and Gi-hun gets to apologize for hassling her about the money and she shares her Ramen with him. He asks her if she's old enough to drink and she scoffs and pours herself some soju. They play the bottle cap game.
They talk about the games.
Sae-byeok says she's going back. She reluctantly sums up her situation, without any real details, and Gi-hun returns the show of trust by telling his story too.
They make their agreement early. If one gets through it and the other doesn't, they'll help each other’s family.
She's even more of a daughter figure to him in the games and her death is that much more devastating.
sangihun this, 457 that, but nothing hurts me more than gihun and saebyeok
"mister?" i will never get over this 💔
“Love Is Watching Someone Die”

I would love comments and/or kudos if you feel like leaving them on AO3, here is fine too, it all makes my heart happy 💗
update on this! I have a plot outlined, some character concepts, chapter titles, and an ending planned 👀
good news, gang!! the fic concept I thought up and then dismissed because ‘it’s definitely been done’ has in fact, to the best of my knowledge, not actually been done
the last thing I need rn is another long-ish fic going but the more I think about this the more I need to write it
I’m actually amazed no one has done it but now I rly want to 😭
I just saw sae-byeok’s name get ellipsis’d by a long url and it got shortened to saeby
WHICH IS SO FUCKINF CUTE I’M GONNA DIE
yk how in S1 the front man was like “this is a fair world” and there was this huge emphasis on equality and no competitor having any (overt) advantage
and the only players who had contraband (sae’s knife, mi-nyeo’s cigs and lighter) had to go to great lengths to smuggle them in
did they just stop caring in S2 or was the thought process (from the game staff) that it would make things more interesting
opened my laptop to read over my jibyeok WIP while I had breakfast and ended up writing 1k words and almost finishing the scene that had previously only just started!!!!
Send me a ship and I’ll answer three questions based on if I ship it or not.
What made you ship it?
What are your favorite things about the ship?
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
Why don’t you ship it?
What would have made you like it?
Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?
It’s really disappointing for me to see that some fans are really still thinking the right decision for Gi-hun was to ignore the very GLARING issue that is the games and get on the plane…
and seeing his obsessive actions and proactiveness backed by severe PTSD only as proof he is still a gambling addict… also very disappointing.
